Yeah, Pansy's really keen on those super sparking balls. They sound dead brill. Y'know, you should ask Pansy to think about what your adverts should say--if you're going to put any on the wireless, that is--and she could probably come up with really catchy music for them, too. She's excellent with that sort of thing.
Actually, y'know. You could do something similar with a magic-seeking item that would make loud noises--maybe really annoying music, but whatever--and tell you where your opponents are hiding. What if... what if you made toy Snitches and charmed them to zoom at other players who've got wands? Like... the gag would be that it's the opposite of a real Snitch that zooms away and makes you chase it, right? This joke Snitch would zoom right at whoever you send it towards and chase them or, y'know, dog them and harass them... like Peeves would. I think kids would love something like that! And maybe it would be as easy as those balls to turn it into a magic-seeker that would go find an enemy who's hiding to ambush you or just taking cover. In the ones for the Order, you could amplify the harassment charms, too, maybe so they'd have a wicked hard time fighting you with it whizzing around them.
About Mum: why would she apologise to Percy? He's the one started it.

She didn't burn the bacon, did she?
